Nothing to do with the US congresswoman, this 60-person space serves up modern gastronomy with local ingredients under high vaulted ceilings in a basement that dates from the 17th century. AOC hasn't been around quite so long (it initially opened in 2004, taking on the AOC name five years later), but there is a timeless elegance to the locally-focused dishes crafted by Executive Chef Søren Selinthat here.

A cosy restaurant with a seating capacity for 40-60 people, Restaurant AOC strives to offer a multi sensory experience by stimulating sight, smell, sound and taste. Prices are similar to Noma at 2 500 DKK (380 USD) for the menu, 1 200 DKK (185 USD) to 2 500 DKK (380 USD) for wine pairing and 650 DKK (100 USD) to 850 DKK (130 USD) for juice pairing. You can expect 7-10 dishes.

The restaurant is right next to the beautiful Nyhavn harbor and Kongens Nytorv, where you’ll find the historic Hotel D’Angleterre. The venue is particularly interesting, serving meals within a high-vaulted cellar of Moltkes Palæ, a mansion from the 17th century. The interior is also very simple and cozy but rather serenely beautiful with white-washed ceilings.

AOC Restaurant, awarded one Michelin guide star, is located in the central area of Copenhagen and was once a basement. They aim to provide you with the ultimate sensory experience by stimulating as many senses as possible—sight, smell, sound, and taste. The cuisine primarily uses Nordic agricultural products, and the chefs focus on authentic flavors.

AOC is a hidden gem with two Michelin stars that offers a great eating experience that is based on the senses. It’s in a historic vaulted cellar and uses both high-quality Danish products and cutting-edge cooking methods. The AOC is one of the best rooftop restaurants in Denmark because it focuses on taste, texture, and smell.

Last year, I paid my first visit to the two-starred restaurant AOC (Aarø & Co.), which is a bit of a hidden gem despite its high rating. In recent years, the owners, Christian Aarø and Søren Selin, have also established two more casual concepts in the Danish capital. First out was No. 2 back in 2014.

Other options include Geranium, the only three-starred restaurant in the city; AOC, with two stars and with a focus on sensorial experiences, Relæ, with a more casual atmosphere, or 108 (CLOSED), with a very ambitious take on modern Nordic gastronomy and more affordable than the former.

Modern Danish cuisine in this 2 star Michelin restaurant is on offer amongst a delightful atmosphere created by the vaulted ceilings. The full menu experience paired with the full wine selection can set you back as much as 5000 DKK, depending on which you choose. That’s a whopping $700!

This establishment, with a clean Scandinavian interior and huge tables, offers a dining experience that is hard to forget. The keyword here is Nordic, yet you won’t find potatoes with herring here. Their cuisine has a modern twist.

All of the Danish restaurants to win two stars in 2023 kept their stars, meaning the list of two-star restaurants now runs: Alchemist, Aoc, Frederikshøj, Henne Kirkeby Kro, Kadeau Copenhagen, Kong Hans Kælder, Koan and Jordnær.

Behind the cookie and pastry shop are Jacob and Gabi Mogensen, who are experienced chefs with Michelin stars on their shoulders - Jacob has been an assistant chef at both AOC and Alberto K restaurants in Copenhagen.

Geranium, Denmark’s gastronomy lynchpin in the wake of Noma’s hiatus, maintained its three-star rating, while Kadeau in Copenhagen became the third two-star eatery in the country, joining AOC and Henne Kirkeby Kro.

Michelin ** All the plates were picturesquely beautiful, the food was flawless and the menu as a whole was composed with wit and distinction. Actually, the strong focus was what impressed me the most.
